The Deluxe version of the traditional 48/270 Chromonica represents a further milestone in the construction of high quality wooden comb chromatic harmonicas. New features include improved comb geometry for better response in the upper register, replaceable reed plates affixed with screws instead of nails, chrome plated mouthpiece with round holes, new reed plate mensur and reed profiles and thicker reed plates. The slide assembly can easily be converted for left hand use.
These features improve handling and response, making the Super Chromonica Deluxe louder and more airtight while retaining the typical HOHNER sound.
